Item Description

"The Cow-ardly Cod" by Leah Bordieri

Medium: Photography and Mixed Media

Size: 19" x 8"

Artist Statement:

A recent trip to the Azores inspired me to create this cow-themed cod. These beautiful islands are the home to more cows than people. Cows and fish are the two of most prevalent sources for food on the island. The cows on the island had such personality, that I found myself snapping photo after photo of them. The Cow-ardly Cod idea developed as I was sifting through over 100 photos I took of these silly creatures.

Artist Biography:

I am currently the Photography and Graphic Design teacher at Marblehead High School. Prior to teaching, I obtained over ten years of professional photography and graphic design experience at organizations such as WilmerHale, Houghton Mifflin, and Museum of Science, Boston, I worked to brand and promote organizations in visual and written media. I am currently the happiest I have been, working to inspire young minds to reach their creative potential.
